Letters from a World War 2 U.S. Army captain in Europe to his wife in Michigan.

The 4th dawned cold and gray and before the battalion had time to pull out the heavy snow started to blanket the ground. The next few days were spent in very necessary programs of personal and vehicular maintenance.

Personally honey , the last four days I been as jumpy as one could be. Everything seems to get on my nerves. Even the slamming of doors gets on my nerves. I’ll be okay as soon as I get some sleep.

Received another box of candy from mom, she sent it 21 Sept. and it sure was in good shape and sure could stand for some more. Schwartz says to mention sending some Boston Baked Beans.
